hopefully we will get somewhere with these studies. The lack of solid research on a disease that affects millions (likely a good percentage undiagnosed) is really tough for patients - and myself really, as I've found i likely suffer from this.

Finding out about autonomic dysfunction and small fiber neuropathy as I researched my own fatigue and finding out I likely have this has been very challenging.

zx8080•52m ago
It's probably more profitable to treat symptoms.
jambalaya8•26m ago
Hard to treat symptoms with immunological conditions. I mean, there are vitamins and supplements, but noone is gonna generally hand out economy-sized bottles of controlled substances for exhaustion, etc.

These sorts of conditions are systemic, and the causes and ways of dealing with the accompanying syndromes are probably always going to be different from individual to individual (well, likely the exact physiological causes anyway).

jph00•48m ago
Wow mucosal innervation was around half in long covid patients - that's super worrying and would have nasty symptoms in practice.

The findings also support the hypothesis that SARS-CoV-2 may cause structural nerve damage, which is perhaps the even bigger worry. :(

RandomTisk•11m ago
What kind of symptoms? I have insane stomach issues since early 2021 that only this year started to largely subside.
peab•38m ago
i noticed a thing with headlines like these: "x may cause y". Whenever it's "may" or "might", it's almost always meaningless
shiggydump•37m ago
Only the Sith deal in absolutes.
naturalmovement•31m ago
Not to worry, there's three dozen commenters on the way to attest long COVID is definitely the source of their many nonspecific ailments that could easily be ascribed to various other illnesses.
jambalaya8•21m ago
Problem with those conditions and long COVID and CFS are generally similar: No really reliable guaranteed test for most of them, just a series of symptomatic diagnoses and years of ruling out conditions. No offense, but while some people might be full of crap, you sound really insensitive.
naturalmovement•10m ago
If you suppose it's all malarkey and conjecture, what is the problem?

When your doctor says that you're wrong, do you accept his advice or tell him he should be more like Dale Carnegie?

thenerdhead•26m ago
small study yes, meaningless no
flextheruler•36m ago
8 people as the entire control group... yeah I'd say "may" is the operative word in the title. My takeaway from long covid is that it's probably as severe as the much more deadly pandemic of the Spanish Flu. Considering there's now a newfound interest in "long flu", I think a spotlight has now been placed on the impact of severe respiratory illness. Whether that illness be covid or one of the any other respiratory illnesses.
jambalaya8•23m ago
Yeah, twelve patients and eight in the control group isn't really a study.
jMyles•21m ago
It's strange that the phrase "long covid" has suddenly jumped into our lexicon, when there has been a similar tiny minority of patients reporting similar symptoms from the other coronaviruses for decades now.

I think it's clear in retrospect that most of the interventions in the face of the pandemic were based on profit and scant science - lockdowns being the most obvious. But increased study and awareness of post-infection syndromes without the kind of high-brow dismissal that these patients have received up until now... well, that's certainly an acceptable silver lining.

thenerdhead•19m ago
severity is only one factor in developing long covid.

Is there a test for long covid?
thenerdhead•24m ago
not quite. A grab bag of biomarkers being validated in research labs across the USA though
nradov•18m ago
There's no such thing as "long COVID" specifically. Any serious viral infection has the potential to cause sequalae in susceptible patients for reasons that are still not well understood. Some of those are detectible in lab tests to an extent but there's no single clear diagnostic test.
thenerdhead•9m ago
they are pretty well understood now with growing evidence of viral persistence in the gut and immune cells, and immune dysfunction causing autoantibodies.

they are also distinct from other conditions like ME/CFS or other sequelae although they may share overlapping symptoms. A lot of research is going into different PAIS post acute infection syndromes

LorenPechtel•3m ago
Think of AIDS before the immune system dysfunction was found. That's where we are with Long Covid. One cause, a myriad of apparently unrelated effects--that's not how biology tends to work. Rather, there's something deeper we haven't found. And we certainly can't test for what we haven't found.
